Sunday Meditations: There is a Star in Every Good Start

By Zion Emmanuel Obeten

  

Isn’t it good to know that there is a STAR in every good STARt?

But in a bid to compete in the rat race, small jobs are often neglected, small tasks are rejected and so, bigger opportunities that come in the clothing of these ‘small things’ are unconsciously relegated.

Most people want to make it so big the first time and so, if the start doesn’t fetch them ‘good’ fortune in a short time, they, out of frustration, push it aside.

What’s more? They keep going round in same circles while looking out impatiently for great profit and hence, miss that STAR in what they thought was a small STARt. They miss the PROFIT because they are running away from the PROBLEMS.

But there’s a call to the fact, though hard to accept by many, that no labour is without flavour, no work is without a worth and no task is without a taste.

What adds colour to all these is dependent on our perspective towards them.

The start, even though so small, should not make the man small, but rather, the man should locate and bring out that shining star out of that start. He should be able to bring out what’s ideal from that ‘little’ idea. Simply put, the difference between a star and a start is a ‘T’. All we’ve got to do is to Think big, Try harder and Trust our capability.

When all these happen, just know for sure that you are on a Transformation journey to becoming a SHINING STAR.

Remember, don’t despise a little beginning.
